Looking through the T e C ysta1 of the C.'.ass of 1931 we find it a record of many outstanding accomplishments. During our four-year stay in Hillside High School e have had every opportunity to develop ourselves net only mentally, but physically uid socially as well. T ' v ing which v e have reeeiveo. in these .phases of life is invaluable to us, and it is v.-itli the deepest regret that v e realize that wc must go. The time for parting is at hand and we must step out at high school life into the world where v e will have to rely upon the background wo received in the high school. The success of the Class of 1931 in High School life was the result of much hard and tedious work. The Seniors have ’ erked dilligently to put the class upon a solid foundation in order to got the most out of the four -year term. The success of the Class, however, was due not only to the seniors themselves, but also to the 'people outside of the class who have taken an interest in our welfare. Realizing this the class of 1931 wishes to take this opportunity to empress its gratitude to-Idr. 'Toodficld and Mr. Cox for the encouragement and the splendid opportunities they have given us; to Hiss Hecscman and Miss Jones, our faculty advisors, for the time and effort they have devoted to the class', to the rest of the faculty and the lower classmen who have given us their hearty support throughout our stay at the high school. As president of the class of 1931, I 'ish to take this opportunity also to than!' the mom ers of the class for their unfailing suape’t and cooperation which have resulted in making the task before i t osier, and have insured the success of all our undertakings.

TEH CRYSTAL The Faculty Game. The first quarter of the game between the class of hi and the faculty started in the year of 1927. The line-up of the faculty included the late Mrs. Perkins at English; Mr. Long at bra and science with Mr. Rettino assisting; Mrs. 0’Bonne11, civics; iss Bowen, frihcipal; Miss McKeever at French ; and ;,rs. Rudolph at I a tin; ■ is? Jones at business practice; and Miss Edgar at typewr . hile the faculty team successfully eliminated several members of the class team, the majority scored their twenty ('20) points which made them eligible for the second quarter. The second quarter found the faculty shifting its line-up, Mr. Pease replaced Mrs. Perkins at English; Mr. Mprtop substituted for Mr. Long at -eometry; Mr. Sowers tool dace at biology; IIisr Heeseman took her place at commercial arithmetic; Miss Jones shifted to bookkeeping; while Piss ricICeev r, Hrs. udolph, and Piss Edgar remained at their respective positions. After much struggling most of the class amassed a sufficient number of credits to allow them to participate ir the third quarter. In the third quarter the faculty again changed its line-up. Miss Harris relieved Mr. I ase at English; hr. Long replaced Ur. Morton at mathematics; hr. Faltings, and later Ur. Ferry, came in at history; Miss Jones played two positions,, one at bookkeeping and one at commercial geography; while Miss Heesoman shifted to stenjgraphy; Mr. Mitchell came in at advanced biology; Mr, Sowers iff'ift-d tc physics; Hiss HcKeever and Mrs. Rudolph again remained in their apective positions. Hiss Edgar was not able to parti-pate in the rest of the dofrtest. The last and deciding quarter found few changes in the lineup. Hiss Harris started at English and was later relieved by Hr. Zutr.an; Hr. Ferry shifted to problems of democracy, and Hr. Sowers to cher. is try? Hiss Heeseman remained at stenography. During the last quarter Kiss Jones had to hold down three positions, office practice, business English, and accounting. All during the game the following reserves were kept; Hr. Dubow, physical training; ,‘essrs. harper and Roberta, manual trainijg; Hrs. leer, physical training; Hiss 31 cane, art; Hrs. Ibhant, home economics; Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Stephens, music. Hiss Eskesen got in during the last quarter at French. Mrs. Estabrook, 3 - ,rian, kept score while Hr. Cox, Princinal, acted as referee. After the victors’- over the faculty, the class wil] take on the faculties of higher schools oi learning, and in doing so they ex ect to get even keener competition. 31 e vow C-. 0 rb an THE CRYSTAL Najne Where found Wl.nn ’ eators.s 1 Crosson In the hall Pres, of Bank Advancing Theories 2 ixican Public speaking Scientist Annoying Eng.Teacher 3 Hanson In the gym Flying Uniforms 4 Ilartmn Hose 1' s Radio Operator Radio 5 Moser v’ith Hartman Ditto Ditto 6 Hebbo In the movies Make dough Math 7 Kermey Vitii Ray To pass ghern Her compact 8 Reilly Hermoy's locker Golf Fro Golf 9 .Jacobi (H) That green roadster Graft So many 10 Johnson Zilahy's Truck driver Money 11 JjaForce v'itli Isabelle Journalism Executive. 12 Ldnning Dramatics Club Lindner Lindner 13 Lindner Dramatics Club Lanning Lanning 14 Lindlau The bowling alleys Pin boy TjCssons 15 Jacobi (R) In the drug store Companionate Marriage Her car. 16 'Littlejohn In a fog Commercial advertising Art 17 iMangles That Buick Rich playboy Buick 18 Maurer At Dick’s Engineiring Diesel Engines 19 McCarthy Miss Harris’ Room Statistician New York Times 20 Nash His collar Anything aeronautical Aviation 21 Orban Nash’s cellar To smoke cigarettes As above 22 Padula Sewing room Seamstress Clothes 23 Potts Standard Gas Station To be married Buyer 24 Rahner Some orchestra Bachelor of Music Violin 25 Schaefer Around the school To bo intriguing Popularity 26 Fade With Ruth Soap box orator Himself 27 Schiffel In Newark To keep order in classmeetings Sundays 28 Welch Her Buick Run a Frat House Boys 29 Smith Tillou's To succeed in vamping a girl Juniors 30 Tillou With Smith To eat lunch The younger set 31 ' eston Race track Horses Horses 32'Weber The wee sma' hours Chorus girl Make-lip THE CRYSTAL pure All Favorite Saying Fat . provVi • Tam Become a Teacher Time Don't Fc,, t School 3 hk Fool Did I tell you this Sleep Has He One?

So1s Your Old Antique, a comedy, portrayed the interior of an antique shop with its dusty and worm-eaten curios which were indeed rare antiques. In the second play entitled The First Dress Suit, a gentleman passes through an important crisis; namely, that period when he enters manhood and thinks he is master of his own mind. The last (but by no means the least) was a Japanese poea-play called The Flower of Yeddo which tested the love of a Japanese poet.

They were one.-hundred fifty in nunber, the largest ever known to start at the hillside port. The confidence of the crowd, about ready to begin such cn undertaking on this foggy norning was largely due to their lightheadedness, which was of sufficient buoyancy to float anything in rid-sir. 1927-1928 June 28--.uch seriousness was in the air on this lovely sunshiny norning--everyone ready for the grand processional. All this--ten rinutes--and it was over. Most of us then felt v-uch bigger, and better than ever, although we only had a piece of paper to show for this feeling. V.e almost forgot those 'ho were very much des ppointed this norning and are now planning to leave our ranks. 1928-1929 3cpt' bor 7-- T . fog had become preveler.t and much to our surprise v.e found we had only two airplanes to continue on this trip after the first quarter had beta accomplished. At this port we also tool- on some new passengers from the flight nade the year before. These passengers had been stranded at the first port and .ere forced to continue with the cl.sc of 31. March 23--At last the night has arrived! Our first dance was, to the surprise of nary, nade to equal any affair ever put on in the school. To many of the members of our class we had to issue subpoenas to attend this affair, but all those who attended had a ost gala time.

As I alighted from the 'plane at the municipal airport, I glanced around. 'hite a change, I thought, from the small town that I had 1 r.o’.vn This was now a glittering metropolis, I jo :mg to my left a series of long, lev;, rambling build- ings mot my eye Over them a mammoth sign read, Orban Interplanetar; Airways Well, I thought, Steve certainly had made a success of his hobby, Turning to a mechanic, I inquired, What has become of a fellow named Nash? You know, Gordon Nash Isn’t he a side-kick of Mr. Orban? The mechanic glanced at me in amazement. You must be a stranger in this city, he remarked, if you haven't heard of the fight between Nash and Orban. I am, I acquiesed, but tell me about it. Well, he began, Nash and Orban first started this company together as partners, but---. Do you see that man over there? .. Yes, I replied, observing a flashily dressed man of about forty, entirely surrounded by a group of beautiful women, what has he to do with it? Well, continued my informer that s Nash. He lost interest in airplanes and quit the company I walked out of the airport in a daze, and as I was crossing the street a brilliant green Issota-Fraschin bore, down upon me stooping with a shriek of brakes. The chauffeur looked vaguely familiar but the wcr.ian in the back seat immediately caught my eye, because of her costly apparel. Next to her sat a good-looking man in formal afternoon wear. She leaned out and said, I am so sorry we frightened you, I'm afraid Ray was driving too fast. Rayi I echoed. Yes. My chauffeur, you know. Pardon me, I continued, but I am a stranger in this city. Could you tell me where the High School used to be in about 1931?' THE CRYSTAL In 1951 - Continued '‘Yes, she replied do you see that tall building on the next bloclc? That is built over the spot where the high school used to stand Oh, I aurnurred as I took in the 3ize of the skyscraper she pointed out, I’m afraid you’re going to think me terribly rude, but you and this gentleman look very familiar to me. I used to live here in 1931. VThy, Richard bade, don’t you know us, she asked You knew this man as William Ilangels. He is a movie star now, you will see his other name in lights at the Mayfair Theater. His latest picture is making its oremiere there this afternoon. I was Ida.rie Bernau, though that is not my name now'. My chauffeur here is Ray Reilly. He was a great success as a golf pro, but this new air polo craze has spoiled the business. I have engaged him as my chauffeur until he gets on his feet again. Just at this point the traffic lights changed and after promising to visit them all later the car rolled away. Reeling the need of sustenance, I hurried into a combination cigar store, soda fountain and news stand. I’ll have a large Coca Cola with a dash of lemon, I said to the clerk. He reminded me so much of Allan Goebel that I asked him his name. Imagine my surprise to find that he was Allan’s son, now a freshman in the nev high school, and to hear that his farther was the City Treasurer. I bought a copy of The Times which was now a lar ;e daily. I glanced at the title of an editorial called, Hunting the Borinkishaw-Brontossaurus in Southern Baluchistan by Margaret Potts, who though married still writes under her maiden name. Next to it was an editorial, The Value of a Physical Education to High School Students, by Paul Lindlau, teacher of athletics in Chicago University, and .just below that was an article on Society News by Rose Jacobi. I turned quickly to the sporting section. There was a big article about the Hillside A. A. which captured the pennant last year. The first name to meet my eye was Richard Hartman, pitcher, still going strong. Just below that I saw the glaring headlines Dixie Lee Owned by Myles V eston of Hillside Breaks World Trotting Record at Grand Circuit, Time 1:52 -. I then turned back to the first page where these headlines net ty eye: Arnold La Force, Republican Candidate for Pres- idency in 1952, Exonerated in Political Deal .With 'Boss’ Herbert Jacobi, Tammany Ming. Further on in the article I read The Support Given Mr. La Force by Mr. Gecre McCarthy's' statistical evidence v as substantiated by Mr. Joseph Schiffel, Govenor of the State of Illinois. T1I!S CRYSTAL In 1951 - Continued To the left of this wrrs an article by Margaret '.' inter, famous woman historian, on the origin of political parties. On the first page was Jessie Duncan, Foremost Woman Orator Addresses Associated Women’s Clubs of America and Jeannette Lindner Takes Sophomore Prize in Debating, in High School. That really made me feel as if I were getting old. • Next I turned to the theater page. There I saw the following announcement: The Hillside Metropolitan Opera House is pleased to announce John Rahner, world’s foremost violinist, who will give a series of concerts starting May 20. And then I noticed some of the advertisements. Catherine Padula, Modiste Shoppe , Shirley Hermey, Dogs for Every Occasion, Blue Ribbon Dog Farms, Pompton Lakes, N. J. , and Helen Hansen's Tea Room were some that caught my eye. Remembering Bill Mangel’s premiere, I turned back to the amusement section. There I saw, The Mayfair is pleased to announce Elsie Gaeckle and Dorothea Weber, famous dancers who have just completed a successful world tour . The name Anna Hastie, Elocutionist also appeared on the bill. As I finished reading this, an airplane roaring over the city came dangerously close to the tower of a building. I could see the name Zilahy painted on the wings. I guess that was ’Soc’ Johnson , I thought to myself. Passing down the street I saw names on the diverse offices that recalled to my mind various other members of the Class of ’31. I saw, William Littlejohn, Commercial Artist, with Irma Muller, Alice Simcox, and Marie Birch, Assistants. Martin Maurer’s name was written in gold on a window that announced the fact that Diesel engines could be procured there. Next to this was a sign, Ed. Moser, All That’s New In Radio. Passing the Hillside Bank I perceived that John Crosson's name was printed as President. The bank had grown very big and looking in the window I could see a large office force working. Among the secretaries' I recognized Myra Gunther, Gertrude Fox, Sarah Doyle, Amy Wright, Ruth Steinberg, and Marion Hrven. I was just ready to get a taxi for tho airport when I saw a large crowd around a. furniture store window. Being curious bjr nature I pushed forward to see what was going on. There in the window a man was advertising a new kind of mattress by the simple method of sloeping on it. I was about to turn away when I recognized him as Jake V ind, 3rd. Well, I thought, he got a job that he likes. THE CRYSTAL In 1951 — Continued Just as I turned away from the crowd I camo face to face with Stanley Tillou- Ho gave me a lot of added information. I learned that Eleanor lviccCartney was taking Alice Pries’ place at Hillside High School and Doris Welch was teaching chemistry; Myor Terry was making a uamo for himself as a tennis champion; Evelyn Oswald was touring in Hawaii where her husband was stationed it the Naval Ease; Coriino Wciler had just opened a dancing school in the Masonic Hall; much to my surprise Stella Scl-lick had become a motion picture star; while added to the new High School teaching staff was Ruth Schaefer, Latin toachcr. ’.That arc you doing? I inquired. OhI ho replied, Paul Smith and I have bachelor apartments on Westminister Avenue. Won't you come over? No thanks, I said. This town has changed too much for mo. I'm going back to Podunk to think things over. Richard Wade H ro and There Problems for biology: Tho grafting of reed chains on ba- il ana skins. McCarthy: What are you doing for charity? Sritty: Borrowing your notebook. Mr. Zuman: Where's the rest of the class? Lindner: Jeanette's absent. Any Senior: This is Webster's definition. A Certain Toachcr: Never mind, I’ll give my own.

In witness whereof- we Witnesses: sot on. nci a nd seal Jeannette Lanning nineteenth day of Rose Jacobi June, nineteen hundred and thirty-one The Class of 1931 tIP-CRYST l Famous 7 slung ton Trip. Kay 11; the day that e waited for, and there had to be a fog I Such is fate for fifty people, .So ever, this did not dampen anybody’s spirit ,,n.� soon the fun be an T' e ride was long but That did it natter . .11 members of the class nixed .'ell with one another. The private coach, finally arrived at Washington, the home of five newspapers. Busses .••.raited but not 'or us. We waited for ours ..nd lost our Daylight Saving Tine. The busses cane in ‘’Bill Littlejohn style—late—but they finally transported us to the Lee House, which proved to be nuch better than re hud expected, (Later exceptions will be noted.) .after all the baggage and other junk had been taken care of, the busses took us for a tour of the city. The Guides soon demonstrated their wares and everybody, at once, began to look blank. The Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial passed a snecial examination given by the Kon. Class of 1931. Several intrepid ( crazy may be substituted) seniors climbed the Washington Monument while other imbeciles created artificial thunder by running down the monument. Bor these, banana oil was suggested; the elevator w s the fate of the re3t of the class. From the monument, on a clear day. one can see anything within a range of ten miles; but the sky was not clear when we were there. These scenes were soon left and again the Lee House welcomed us, somewhat stiffer of neck from our left and right gymnastics as urged upon us by the Guides, Soon after our second arrival at the Hotel, the aviators joined the Class, wing traveled by train, net by air, due to poor 'eather conditions. ..fter dinner� (t-.sy believe that good things come in small quantities in Washington, so they applied this idea to all meals) .the Congressional Library was visited. Very beautiful we agreed, but what results from two hours! Obi Ohi The first night in 7a hington wa celebrated by a dance ;iven by a, Pittsburg School staying at the Lee bouse, and Our Gan . Several lonely members of the Senior Class became acquainted .-it: certain Pittsburg students (ask ii.rtin Maurer for further information). The Virginia Room 'ill always- be remembered by romantic Hillside Seniors. THE CRYSTAL That Famous Washington Trip (Continued) While the dance was going on, various fashion shows and mathematical experiments were being carried on upstairs. A certain old gentlemen (a very complimentary word) known as the house detective soon began his annoying tours. He later cea'sed to operate, but so did the entire class. (the II. D. quits at five o’clock)! exceptions should be made for the peculiar creatures who persisted in taking showers all night long. The next day, rather the morning after, the guide took us over to the Bureau of Engraving, which soon became known as the home of the walking and talking robots. After this ship-like experience we visited the Smithsonian Institute, where one may go where one pleases and sec what one wants. Our aviators wore again disappointed because the Aircraft Building'was closed. The next Stop was at the White Ho se, but we did-not see Herb. He probably saw us first. The Pan-American Building with its beautiful, exquisite, tropical garden was the next place to bo inspected. And -last but not least, we visited the Capitol which we looked over carefully to see if there were any lobbyist a-round. Several Seniors would like to know if that last ladder should have been climbed. Outside of the Capitol building, pictures of Washington’s most famous visitors (the Class of 1931) v.’ere taken. Expressions on the faces of a few of the seniors should be carefully studied, also Miss Jones’ picture. Tuesday afternoon we all became sailors traveling on a convertible submarine to Mt. Vernon. (Ho matter where you looked all you could see was water.) Males on the boat became overwhelmed with women on this trip. Remember those eighty-five girls at one portl Various kinds of dancing lessons were e:iven free of charge. Mt. Vernon was finally reached and seen by those who could I'.bly dodge between the rain drops. After a short time, the crew again returned to the so-called submarine, and then from Washington’s house we went to the Lee House. On Tuesday evening the movies and a swimming pool had a sudden return to prosperity. The group that vent to the movies still wants to know how anybody can go swimming in a pool at night after swimming around Washington for two days. Later in the evening, or rather earlier in the morning, Seniors became interested in setting a world record j-or nonsleep. To keep everybody awake, many glittering spring styles were presented by the feminine protion of the group, ..hile the boys were conducting mysterious experiments of higher Algebraic formulae. These events helped members of Room 321 to remain awake all night. TIE CRYSTAL That Famous Washington Trip (Continued) The next morning to most people, but later in the morning to most Seniors, our guides, who had eyes in the back of their heads, took us on another nock-stretching tour. We visited the zoo. At first the gang had a good time laughing at the mon- , keys; then it was the monkeys’ turn. The Arlington cemetery was next on the itinery. Although we were very much impressed we did not leave anybody tfrere. After finding out why they have flagpoles in Washington, we returned to the Home of Short and Snappy Meals. Raiding five-and-ten-cent stores, and saying goodbye to the hotel wore the main events of the last hours in town. Finally at that mournful moment of five, we were again wafted away by the B. 0. On the train we had the second good and plentiful meal, the first having been served on the trip down. Soon Elizabeth (that ’. ell-known suburb of Hillside) was reached. Here one of the best events of the trip occurred-namely the unexpected greeting given us by the Junior boys--God bless them. In closing this tale 3ome information and advice should be given oo next year's Seniors. Nineteen thirty-two, if you remember the following items, your trip will be a success'; 1. Don't rnind house detectives. (We cured then ) 2. Don't answer telephones after 11 o'clock P.M. b. Don't oil the Bureau of Engraving guides. 4. Don't walk up the Washington Monument. 5. Don't forget to be good students and to pray for the sun 6. Dcm't get caught turning mattresses. Hotolkn S:1 Hou=o.f°r80t t0 l00k at th° metropolitan George G.

It is a member of the “Quill and Scroll and of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. It has won numerous prizes in the past. This year’s publication is smaller in size due to the fact that attention has been centered on literary achievements, humor, spoTts, and social brevities rather than on a review of news. This plan has been very successful under the able supervision of Miss Harris and Miss Potter, and the Class of Thirty-one extends its sincere wishes for continued success in the future.

Georg e McCarthy THE CRYSTAL High School Orchestra 1930-1-331 The year 1930-1931 has been a most active one for the High School Orchestra and Glee Clubs. Besides being one of the best and one of the largest in the history of Hillside .n0h the orchestra has played at more important functions cnan in any previous year. In the past year, the orchestra played an important part in all the school assemblies which rrere offered, not to mention playing for several cniovable events sponsored by tne Music Depart rent itself. One of the most enjoyabl'e music programs was the annual Orchestra and Glee Club Concert given during the month of March Selections were .rendered by both bo s' and girls' glee clubs. Ir. May the orchestra participated in the Inter scholastic, State of Hew Jersey, Orchestra Contest at He- B-rvis ' c’:. This was the first time in the history of Hillside! High-.that- e':h-:ve sent the orchestra'td compete and it is hoped that in coming years we shall always be able to enter the state contest. The orchestra did not place at Few Brunswick since we w8re outnumbered in membership bv orchestras of rhe same high senool class a s our s. The year has been a jovous one in,musical participation and we hope to do betrer and bigger things in .musical activity in coming years. One ammb'tion of the music faculty and. tnose students irusicallv interested is to ssi tnc day when Hillside will have a fine band in addition to its orchestra and glee clubs to play at interscholastic meets. He all feel that much credit is due.to Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Stephens for the constant inspiration of their leadersnip, ?.nd to Mr. Grossman fo_ his direction of the orc.icstra. John Rammer THE CRYSTAL Debating Debating in the past year has shown a decided upward trend. Interest in the forensic art was early manifested by the proclaiming of a particular da1'' to be devoted to the interest ox debating and bv holding ? debate banquet. Dur- to the large enrollment, the origional club was forced to split into two factions, the first of which adopted the.name of Old Hickory end the second, The Gavel. The officers of Old Hickory are; Paul Smith, President; Stella Sellick, Vice-president ; end John Rabner, Secretary. The officers of The Gavel ere: Ruth Schaefer, resident; liar tin Maurer, Vice-pres- ident; and John Colin, Secretary. ’Some twenty debates were held during the coir3e of the season, and forty people were given the opportunity ox displaying xneir talent a'ong this Tine.

In that year the club organized under the direction of Miss Mary E. McKeever. The officers elected were: President, Jeannette Landing; Vice-president, Margaret Potts; Secretary, Ruth Schaefer; Treasurer, William Littlejohn. The initial membership was forty-five. The purpose of the C3.vb is to bring out any originality in the form of plays, sketches, or suggestions for productions that may be in the school. It is also for the purpose of teaching stage management, acting, lighting, effects, etc. During its first season it produced one evening- play and an operetta and two assembly plays. Its evening production was given on May 27, 1930, and was called Suppressed Desires. The operetta given the same night was Jigamaree The second year it was winder the direction of the same officers due to the fact that it was organized in the spring, thereby giving the officers short terms. In 1930-31 the Club gave t o assembly plays, one afternoon performance, and one three act play entitled Green Stockings, which was given at the tenth anniversary High School Night, May 8, 1931. The cast for Green Stockings included: Ida Farraday Celia Farraday Madge Rockingham Lady Trenchard Phyllis Farraday Robert Tarber Admiral Grice Henry Steele James Raleigh Colonel Smith Martin, the 3utler Mr, Farraday Ruth Schaefer ’51 Jeannette Lanning 31 Dor othy 7i 1 lmot ’32 Rosemary Huber T32 Virginia Martin ’32 Clark Vogel ’32 Ellsworth Schug 32 Arnold Spofford 32 William Littlejohn f31 Charles Lindner ’31 Robert Minchin 33 Richard Wade 31 Stage Manager—Jack Zeigler Jeannette Lanning THE CRYSTAL Ths Hi-Y Club Arnold La Force-President William Beattie-Vice-President John Crosson-Secretary arc Treasurer Irvin R.

It seems hardly pos ible ps we -aze upon the honest but rc?nt face rf the present fresh lan that three years c uld make such a vast change. During their Sophomore vear the clcss was orynized with Thomas Forsythe as president, Isabel Drummond ■? vice-president, Ruth Middle :on as secretary and Willi'u Beattie ®e treasurer. n3us Kleim, Dutch Auerman, Alfred De Rose nd Ellsworth Schug represented the class in activities. Ir was during this year th't the Sophomore girls held the school ch' roi'nship in basketball. Then c-:ae the Junior year with Clark Vogel president, Elsworth Schug, vice-president, Virginia Martin, secret rv and Fred Keese-m n, tre'surer. The same members who represented the Sophomore cl'ss in sports repeated in their Junior year. Randi Kjekstad was one of the outstandinrr debaters, while M'ri'n Short was the best athelete of the girls. Some of the important activities of the cl'ss of '33, which mrde it one of the best in the history cf K. H. S., were the Friday afternoon Tea D'nces, bhe Junior-Senior D nce nnd the il°yfair benefit performances. As will 's supportinr their own activitie s, the Junior- gave their ,'Th' ioso ne s tpport to every project introd ’.ced by the school. Class of 1953 In September 1929, the class of '33 entered Hillside High as Fresh aen.

Just to be a bit different from all the other freshman prece ; ... hen, the cl ss of 134 started off with having two Trial hum in assembly� The plays were written and supervised • by the• , g,. j; group end were titled Loyalty and Cheating. Besides . ir matie exploits they organized freshman basketball, basab ll, and debating teams of which they were very proud. The : nail Training -roup was another big feature in the Spring exhibit. The Freshmen did two things that made the rest of the school lock un so 'client first, tnej made the largest contribution to the Red Cross Drive; and secondly, the Technical Course give a banQuer in honor of Mr. Cox on April , which was a great success. The Freshmen conduct their own assembly with Jack Conian, presiding as chairman, and Alice Nyulasy, secreu ,, . And so in conclusion, we, the class )f 195.1, extend o the class of 1954 our sincere and hearty wishes for success in the coming years as students of Hillside nigh School.

Despite the lack of veterans, only one being left from last season, and the fe itherweight array, the season produced some thrilling scraps.

''Dutch Ammerman and ''Bus1' kleim, the guards, were like a pair of rocks This team with the aid of little Joe Dominia and Ray Reilly played throughout the entire season.

Our team won the Inter-class Basketball championship. 7c pushed aside the Sophs by a score of 26 12; Then in a phoney” game with the Juniors we lost by one point.

They only : n by one point: 24-25. To decide the class championship title of the school we had to play the Juniors once again, e decided it all v.lth a score of 32-17. Because wo weren’t satisfied with the first faculty game, we decided on having another, but this time at night with a dance afterwards. An enormous crowd, (the largest during the entire basketball season) was at the game and they were thrilled through end through as the faculty and Seniors frol-iced together on the gym floor. After the smoko cleared a-wav wo found the faculty again above us, the score standin : 23-31.

Terms for archery, tennis, and track are all being coached with great success by Mrs. Peer. The archery team has not been picked at the time of writing, hue- the tennis team as follows: liar ion Short, Rcuidi Kjclcstajl, (IT anajor) , Rath Schaefer, Eillen Gillen, Ratalie Plumstoad. The track team this year faced the opportunity of winning the Union Comity Track Championship. For the previous two years this team has won and a third victory would have entitled them to the permanent oossession of the cup. Unfortunately, after a great battle in which the team reached the finals, they came in a close second and so lost that golden.opportunity. The future is very hopeful, however, for tnc tcam is oomposea of lower classmen; namely, Alice Aulasy, karion Short, Alma waters, and Johanna Korbaniek. Basketball was not organized as a giVls ' sport this year.
